" Mother"
" What ?" Grandmother turned to Ma with her eyes blazing" How many years have I stomached old man Aria's nonsense and bullshit? Now that he is dead and gone, why should we accept his handouts when he chased your mother from Chugach and asked her never to step foot as long as he was alive? He was angry that she had told old man Oldwolf about the pearl farm and their relationship. Your mother was pregnant and he poisoned her so that you could die. I saved your mother and chose to stay away"
" What the fuck? " I gasped.
" Mother, can you just let it go?" Mama asked as her eyes teared up.
" No," Grandmother snapped.
" You are selfish, Merciline. Do you know that the reason Aurora came back was to ensure that you retire well? She did not want the pearl farm and went ahead to donate it to the pack"
" So what ?" Grandmother adamantly demanded.
" Why did you not discuss this with me beforehand, Mother?" Mama demanded.
